Mr. Roman Raisuddin Khan
President and founder of Peak 21
Over the last decade, I've built, bought and grown a portfolio D2C brands that today generate more than $200M+ in revenue per year and $20M in EBITDA.
I'm the founder of Peak 21 - a D2C HoldCo that buys brands that do $10M to $50M in sales.
My mission is to create a home for D2C brands. A place where you can sell your brand knowing new ownership won't squander what took you years to build.
I want to get to $100,000,000 of EBITDA before the age of 45 (I am turning 39 this year).
My story in short:
- I started Linjer in 2013 Q3 out of my living room with $20,000 savings
- In 2017 Linjer hit $1,000,000 in EBIT without having raised any external capital
- From 2018 to 2020 I acquired 40% to 60% stakes in 3 other D2C brands
- By 2020 my portfolio of brands generated close to $200,000,000 in annual sales
- 2021 we decided to take on external funding to rollup additional D2C brands of larger scale
- I now act as a fractional CMO across out companies managing a $50M+ in paid advertising
Our investors include: Chris Burch, Integrated Capital (Yam family that owns Forbes), Kaya.vc and Nordic Eye.
